NAE Fellows

NAE brings together a body of Fellows with a diverse background, elected for their prestigious track record of impactful engineering-based innovation, their motivation and ability to make a difference, and for their objective, cross-sectoral, and high integrity attitude. Fellows are outstanding engineers as witnessed by their contributions to innovation, technology transfer and market impact, or technical-scientific foundation.

Examples of innovations are innovative products, equipment, software, buildings and other physical artefacts in which the Fellow played a decisive role in the technical design or construction.

Technology transfer and market impact can be the way in which the Fellow brought artefacts to the market or society in the form of protocols, tools, measurement instruments, design methodology, standards, patents, or spin-offs.

Technical-scientific foundation encompasses ways in which the Fellow scientifically underpinned innovations through foundational applied or constructive research.

NAE Fellows have a high profile in achieving impact with innovations in engineering disciplines in economic topsectors, in societal missions, or in key enabling technologies.
